Camellia Quilters stitch up comfort for veterans

The New Orleans Advocate - 7/11/2018

The Camellia Quilters of Slidell has embarked on a project to create 114 quilts for the Southeast Louisiana War Veterans Home in Reserve in time for Christmas. The project was jump-started by a donation of several bolts of patriotic fabric, and nine quilts have already been created.

Volunteer quilters are welcome to join in the efforts; donations of fabric, or money for fabric, are also welcome. For information, call club President Judy Theriot at (985) 640-3764, or Maria Morrow at (281) 450-0107. Camellia Quilters offers classes, sewing bees, and a host of opportunities to help people learn to quilt.
